Person-of-Mystery

Thanks for your patience today and welcome to the Person-of-Mystery Contest!  You've found the home of everyone's favorite weekend pastime, where a stylized photo of a somewhat famous person from history is provided here for you to identify.


Today, we're following up on the Place-of-Mystery from last week's contest.  If you'll recall, I mentioned that scene from Socotra Island in last week's mystery image reminded me of one of my favorite books.  This man has a connection to that book.

So, who could he be?  That's the mystery!  Go ahead and take a guess and then go enjoy your day.  Check back tomorrow and I'll reveal the answer.  The first correct post will be declared the winner.

If you'd like to make sure that your guess is correct, enter his name into Google Images and this photo will be found on the first pages of the image results.

  1. Good morning, Nate. I never know 'famous people' and I'd never heard of that island until last week & I sure don't know any of your favorite books, so I'm no help. Just can't stand to see '0 comments'.

  2. Could it be Antoine de Saint Exupéry?

  3. I don't know much about the rich French culture (I'm ashamed to say), but although it is meant for children I've placed his book The Little Prince on my to-read (actually my to-lend-at-the-library) list.
